LIGHT WEIGHT BASED SECURED MEDICAL DATA TRANSMISSION FOR IOT POWERED COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Abstract

In an era where data security is paramount, this research explores innovative approaches to fortify information protection by combining state-of-the-art techniques in encryption and steganography. The conventional system primarily relies on the widely adopted Advanced Encryption Standard with RivestShamir-Adleman (AES-RSA) encryption scheme, which, despite its robustness, exhibits certain drawbacks. These drawbacks include potential vulnerabilities in the RSA algorithm and limitations in the overall efficiency of the system. To address these concerns, the proposed system introduces a novel encryption mechanism, AES-FBC (Advanced Encryption Standard with Feistel Block Cipher), known for its enhanced security features and improved performance. Moreover, the integration of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) steganography into the proposed system adds an additional layer of concealment, making it more resilient against potential attacks. The comprehensive analysis of the conventional system and its drawbacks sets the stage for the introduction of the proposed system, shedding light on the limitations of the existing methodology and the necessity for an advanced and more secure approach. The ensuing discussion delves into the technical intricacies of both encryption and steganography components, providing a detailed understanding of their functionalities and how they synergistically contribute to bolstering data security. The research culminates in a thorough evaluation of the proposed system through simulations and experiments, demonstrating its effectiveness in comparison to the conventional approach. The findings will underscore the significant advancements achieved in terms of data confidentiality and integrity, thereby establishing the proposed system as a robust and innovative solution for securing sensitive information in various digital environments.
